Driving Global E-Commerce Growth: Achieving 9.1× ROAS for a Vegan Subscription Brand
Our client, an organic food company specializing in vegan subscription boxes, serves customers across multiple continents. From its beginnings, the company built brand visibility primarily through influencer partnerships and organic reach, steadily earning credibility in the growing plant-based lifestyle market. Their subscription model offered a strong value proposition by providing vegan consumers with curated, high-quality products delivered conveniently to their doors. However, while product-market fit was clear, scaling performance through paid channels presented significant challenges.
The organic food and vegan supplement space has become increasingly competitive, particularly on platforms like Facebook and Instagram, where numerous brands compete for limited attention spans. Rising consumer demand for vegan-friendly options meant opportunity, but it also meant advertising costs were high, audiences were saturated, and generalized messaging often failed to cut through. Although the client engaged a prior agency to scale their ads, the approach lacked focus, relying heavily on broad, untargeted campaigns that underperformed. Their average return on ad spend hovered at 2.5×, while cost per purchase remained elevated and results inconsistent across markets. This inefficiency not only strained profitability but also slowed their ability to expand globally.
Scale sales growth beyond organic and influencer-driven channels into paid acquisition.
To move forward, the client needed more than incremental improvements, they required a structured, data-driven strategy tailored specifically to their niche audience. The key challenge was balancing global expansion with efficiency: identifying high-value audiences across multiple regions, improving creative resonance, and ensuring that each advertising dollar drove measurable, scalable growth. PPC Rockers was brought in to overhaul their Meta Ads approach, streamline targeting, optimize the funnel, and prove that a more scientific method of campaign execution could unlock sustainable revenue growth.
